Let me cite here an "alien from Mars" - Arthur K=F6stler : )
"The discoverer perceives relational patterns of functional analogies
where nobody saw them before, as a poet perceives the image of a camel
in a drifting cloud"
or
"The manner in which some of the most important individual discoveries
were arrived at, remind one more of a sleepwalker's performance than
an electronic brain's"
